For the first time in the institution’s history, there will be a separate graduation ceremony for black students at Harvard University.
More than 125 graduate students worked for more than a year and raised more than $27,000 to pay for the event and a reception, the Root reported (http://www.theroot.com/black-students-at-harvard-will-host-individual-graduati-1794977320).
Students attending the ceremony, scheduled for later this month, will still participate in the main graduation ceremony as well.
